quasi-national domicile

Read a random definition: condition

A quick definition of quasi-national domicile:

Quasi-national domicile is where a person lives and considers their home, but it's not necessarily their permanent or legal home. It's different from their domicile, which is their true, fixed, and permanent home where they intend to return and remain. Quasi-national domicile is important for legal purposes, such as taxation and jurisdiction. It's like having a second home, but it's not as important as your real home.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Quasi-national domicile is a person's state of residence, which is different from their national or local domicile. Domicile refers to a person's true, fixed, principal, and permanent home, to which they intend to return and remain even though currently residing elsewhere. A person has a settled connection with their domicile for legal purposes, either because that place is home or because the law has designated that place.

Examples: An example of quasi-national domicile is when a person lives in one state but is a citizen of another state. For instance, a person who is a citizen of California but lives and works in New York has a quasi-national domicile in New York. Another example is when a person is a citizen of one country but lives and works in another country, such as a French citizen living and working in the United States.

Explanation: These examples illustrate quasi-national domicile because the person's state of residence is different from their national or local domicile. In both cases, the person intends to remain in their current residence even though they are citizens of another state or country. This distinction is important for legal purposes, such as determining jurisdiction or choice of law.

Hi everyone! Decided a bit too late that I wanted to go into law. GPA currently stands at 3.76 (one more semester to go) and I'm interested in going into immigration law. Anybody got any advice for LSAT studying and applications? I plan on taking a gap year to have some time for internships and such :)

Apply for the LSAT fee waiver to try to mitigate the cost of materials! 7Sage is $1 for a year if you have the fee waiver. I also think you should try to work in an immigration firm in some way to see if it’s something you really want to pursue and to add to your resume. Good luck!!! One tip I would also give is to not sign up for the LSAT until you’re practice tests average are around the score you’re aiming for
